Southdowns Orienteers

Southdowners Excel at Veteran Home Internationals

Julia Jarvis and Vince Joyce ran for the England Team at the Veteran Home International competition in South Wales this weekend (11/12 November 2006). 

The event is an annual fixture between the best veteran orienteers (M/W 35 – 60) of England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. The event featured a relay on the Saturday at Mynydd Llangatwg and a Classic distance race on the Sunday at Merthyr Common. Julia and Vince took part in both disciplines. On the Sunday, Vince won M50 and Julia was third in W35 – excellent results! Julia and Vince made a great contribution to the overall England win for the weekend and fully justified their selection.

Congratulations and Well Done Julia and Vince!

Overall Standings at the Veteran Home International Competition:
1st England; 2nd Scotland; 3rd Wales; 4th Ireland.
